I've run into a problem where my website has been listed as potentially harmful on multiple platforms, indicating that it's being blocked by some IPs. It's also marked as malware by one service. However, the site is completely empty, the hosting is clean, and the domain is brand new. I'm at a loss for what to do next! My development team suggests using new domains, but I'm not convinced that's the right approach. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Have you checked the DNS settings for your domain? It’s worth querying public DNS resolvers to see if your domain points to the correct IP address. If there's a mismatch, that can be a huge red flag, making your site appear compromised even if it’s clean.
Using a new domain can definitely be a solution, especially if the current one is already flagged. Sometimes, certain TLDs (like '.club') end up on spam lists due to past abuses, so switching domains might be your best bet.
Do you have any recommendations for specialists who can help troubleshoot this issue? I'd rather not handle it myself.
